Dear Community,
I work in the QM and regulatory area at a start-up. We are a small company with a limited budget and try to do as much as possible ourselves instead of paying for expensive consulting services or tools. I have a question about how to stay informed about changes in the regulatory field of the EU market at the lowest possible cost, i.e. no expensive tools or software? What I mean are e.g. changes to technical standards (harmonized standards) that you apply to meet the MDR GSPR for your products. Our Notified Body expects us to identify such changes immediately and take action. This is not always easy when you use many standards. At the moment we're doing an annual review to see what has changed, but I feel that an annual review isn't enough here because some changes happen between the two reviews and we didn't recognize them right away. Do you know where and how to be informed about planned changes and draft versions? That would be super helpful because you can brace yourself for a change to come. Or do you have some recommendations regarding the regulatory review and update process which can make our lives easier?
Your help is highly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
